Long three day solo kayaking trip - Trip summary: to Norrgårdsön and back, 1 person, 3 days, 2 nights in tent, 70km, 12h kayaking The service and material provided by the Kanotcenter was great! They give you all you need and need to know, you can rent a map including a proper case, and they tell you about where to go and what (not) to do. It was easy to extent by one more day as weather was nicer than predicted. Book online as that's easiest for them, no cash accepted. I had a really nice three day trip around the Stockholm archipelago. I went as far east as I could to get a bit to the more remote parts of the archipelago. However, particularly on Sun, there were a lot of boats on the water, all motorised which was good in one way because I was not alone at all, and rather annoying in another because of all that noise. Nature, however, is beautiful and I'd do it again if I could. I stayed the two nights in my tent and went to the sauna on Grinda. This can be booked via the hotel, 500SEK/hour, independent of group size. Stay away from the large cruise chips and the big and fast ferries - which is not a problem if you pay a little attention to the routes on the map and before crossing wide waterways. Please be aware that it's always better to be with at least one more person in case of emergency. However, if you couldn't interest anyone in the trip, the inner archipelago is quite suited for solo kayaking if you're experienced and attentive to weather, waves and ships.

brilliant kajak tour - our kayak tour in the archipelago was brilliant! we booked the wild package for 2 nights and 3 days and did the Grinda/Gallnö tour. The friendly staff at the Kanucenter gave us good advice and handed us out the good quality equipment. we would book with them again. :)

Family holiday in Stockholm archipelago - We did 3 days wild camping and kayaking the Stockholm archipelago - an amazing adventure. Everything we needed was provided, although a compass would have been helpful for navigation. We were driven to Boda so we were straight out into the archipelago, avoiding the busy Stockholm shipping traffic. Water taxi back from the islands was also an excellent decision for the same reason. The kayak centre were very helpful and rapidly responsive to emails when booking - highly recommended
